Recent speculation has suggested Everton could be about to move for the Dutchman this winter, but Van Rhijn insists he is happy to stay with the Eredivisie champions.

He told Dutch TV stationĀ AT5, “It’s everywhere in the news. It would be nice if they are interested, but for now I am happy here in Amsterdam.”

The 22-year-old has been first choice in Amsterdam since Gregory van der Wiel left Ajax for PSG, and has gone on to earn seven caps for the Netherlands national team.

Van Rhijn has a contract with Ajax until the summer of 2015
